Protector of Deer Herd
A former submarine and
rocket nuclear design engi
neer, Charles Romesburg,
switched careers from me
chanical to industrial engi
neering.
He became involved with a
deer herd management proj
ect, financed by the National
Rifle Association, which uses
computerized techniques. He
hopes that this study will lead
to further applications of his
quantitative method with fish
and game, water resources,
forests, rangeland, national
parks, wilderness areas, or al
most any other kind of eco
system.
In the deer management
project, Mr. Romesburg con
centrated on one county in
Pennsylvania. He studied
rates of reproduction and
food availability, winter mor
tality, harvest rate, crop dam
age, and the beneficial cash
flow into the economy. From
this model he projected a
management plan over a 15-
year span to make maximum
use of the deer resource for
society.

Readers of this column will
recognize the following quotation
I’ve used it before but it bears
repeating because of its elo
quence and importance “A body
well nourished with calcium and
other nutrients can be expected
to have good bone growth and de
velopment, a well-functioning ner
vous system, a high level of
vigor and positive health at every
age, and a longer period of the
prime of life ”
The promise of that statement
is something everyone should
seek to realize The words are
those of Drs Millicent L Hatha
way and Ruth M Leverton, who
originally wrote them for a U S
Department of Agriculture Year
book more than a decade ago
But the message is even more
meaningful today as we learn
that malnutrition exists in Amer
ica at all economic levels, not just
from poverty but from ignorance
or lack of motivation as well
The Specific Needs
Young people need sufficient
amounts of calcium all through
their growth years if they are to
realize their full physical poten
tial. Then once they are adults
calcium is needed to keep both
bone and tissue in top shape The
body, including the skeletal struc
tures, constantly loses calcium
and needs new supplies from the
foods we eat And finally, when
we are older, the disease called
osteoporosis can set in, perhaps
as a result of years of not getting
enough calcium in our diets If
this happens - and it is common
in America - the bones of older
people become “thinned” and

WET DAIRY FEED!
No we’re not talking about the flood. We’re talking
about the moisture normally found in any dairy feed.
Some feeds run as high as 65 percent water (silage),
and some as low as 10 percent water (hay).
Granin mixes fall some where in between unless the
manufacturer goes to the trouble of taking the
moisture out of the mix. Pioneer sets as its maximum
11 percent.
Using 15 percent moisture corn, a home made feed
may end up containing as much as 14 percent water.
Every hundred pounds of this feed may have 3 pounds
more water than 100 pounds of Pioneer. If a dairy cow
uses one pound of dry matter to make 3 pounds of milk
there could be 9 more pounds of milk in a bag of
Pioneer than in a hundred pounds of the home made
feed, couldn’t it 7

ID CALCIUM
susceptible to fracture The only
prevention I know of is for peo
ple to get enough calcium
throughout their lives. The best
source (in fact, nutritionists find
it almost impossible to plan ade
quate calcium in one’s meals
without it) is milk.
And recent research, reported
by scientists with the Metabolism
Branch of the National Cancer
Institute - one of our National
Institutes of Health in Bethesda,
Maryland - indicates that we ben
efit most by not only drinking
milk in adequate amounts, but by
drinking it more frequently dur
ing each day
Drs Arthur N Kales and
James M Phang report that “cal
cium in a single dose would be
absorbed with less efficiency than
calcium given in smaller, more
frequent feedings ” They con
clude “that not only the magni
tude of calcium intake but also
the dose regimen can affect cal
cium metabolism ”
Calcium helps the blood to clot
Normal blood clottmg is an es
sential life-preserving process
Calcium helps muscles, including
the heart, and nerves to work
Calcium also regulates the use of
other minerals in the body And
it is essential in the action of cer
tain enzymes and the control of
passage of fluids through cell
walls In combination with phos
phorus, calcium gives rigidity and
hardness to teeth and bones Milk
and milk products are the source
of three-fourths of the calcium
